reviews

1. • premium: True
   • source:
   • content: Deaver writes a grisly tale of a quadriplegic criminologist and a rookie cop on the trail of a brilliant and twisted killer. Connor O'Brien delivers the story with a weak, academic voice that misses the genders of the characters and has tonal pattern more suited for narrating a technical manual. Despite its weaknesses, O'Brien's voice is well matched to the forensic science described in the book. The story of this odd and unlikely pair of detectives is a unique experience as they overcome their own personal obstacles and chase a madman into New York's underbelly. S.E.S.

2. • premium: True
   • source:
   • content: Be warned! In this novel Jeffery Deaver provides, not only heart-pounding suspense and fascinating details about police forensics, but also gruesome minutiae of sadistic mayhem. David McCallum does his best to render the latter with as much taste as the context allows while doing every justice to the author's other attributes. Some may boggle at the hard-boiled NYPD being filtered through a British accent. But McCallum displays a thorough knowledge of the urban American idiom and may be forgiven his refinement. Y.R.

     March 3, 1997
     Deaver (A Maiden's Grave) is too fond of gimmicks. They range in this novel from the extreme (his detective here, Lincoln Rhyme, is a quadriplegic who can move only one finger) to the moderately eccentric (beautiful policewoman Amelia Sachs, who acts as Rhyme's arms and legs, suffers from arthritis). And his villain, a serial killer who models his crimes on ones he finds in a book on criminal life in old New York, has an uncomfortable way of slaying each of his victims in ways guaranteed to stop the heart or turn the stomach: buried alive, flayed by high-pressure steam, eaten by hungry rats, burned alive, attacked by mad dogs. All this takes place in the course of one busy New York weekend as the killer helpfully leaves playful little clues as to where he's going to strike next and Rhyme uses his immense savvy (and a battery of computerized testing tools) to figure it out. The whole affair, in fact, is incredibly silly, though the headlong narrative, with Sachs arriving in the nick of time (driving at 80 mph through New York streets) to perform rescues that seem to belong in a comic strip rather than a novel, never lets up, and there is plenty of genuine forensic knowledge in evidence. There are dramatic switcheroos up to the very last page, and a climactic battle to the death that might make even teenage boys wince. For it seems to be at that kind of readership--uncritical and doting on violence--that the novel is aimed. 100,000 first printing; $100,000 ad/promo; film rights sold to Martin Bregman and Universal Pictures; simultaneous Penguin audio. (Mar.) FYI: An HBO movie of A Maiden's Grave, starring James Garner and Marlee Matlin, will air in January 1997.
